I have had .NET for a while now but just recently started using it for actual .NET applications. I have added everything to iis that i need to, and run aspnet_regiis.exe to refresh ASP.NET per the suggestion of another developer. I still get errors. I'm trying to load even the simplest page and I get errors. I got the following error a few times and made the iis changes:

-2147467259 (0x80004005)

This was all the I saw in the browser. After working on iis I moved on to this error:

Error Type:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0221 (0x80004005) The specified 'Register TagPrefix="sk"
TagName="Calendar" src="popCalendar.ascx""'
option is unknown or invalid.
/Calendar/Sched.aspx, line 1

Sometimes i just get the old:

HTTP 500 Internal server error
The page cannot be displayed

I really would like to see my efforts in a browser someday. Does anyone recognize these errors, and if so send me in the right direction.

I uploaded my files to brinkster. They offer a free hosting plan for educational purposes that supports .NET. I thought this might just be a problem on my server but apparently it's not. I still get an error.

Parser Error Message: Illegal characters in path.

Line 1: <%@ Register TagPrefix="sk" TagName="popUpCalendar" src="popUpCalendar.ascx""%>
Line 2: <%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Codebehind="dispCalendar.aspx.vb" Inherits="PopCalendar.dispCalendar" buffer="False"%>

What are the illegal characters? Does anyone see them?

The illegal character it is talking about is a quotation mark. You have one too many at the end

Thanks Mart, I removed the quote and now I'm getting "The page cannot be displayed" error.

You need to make sure all your dll's are in the bin folder on your server

All the dll's meaning aspnet_isapi.dll and what others? I thought the Framework handled all of this. Thanks very much for helping me with this.

I mean the dll's you produce for this web app. By the code it looks like you are using VS.NET in which case you need to copy all files in the /bin folder in your application.

Wooo... lost me there Mart. Yes I'm using VS.NET, but I didn't produce any dll's. The only thing I did was add all the extensions, verbs, and paths to the aspnet_isapi.dll for all. Does VS.NET build dll's and place them somewhere? You're not saying copy all files into the bin are you? All the .aspx, .aspx.vb, .ascx, and .ascx.vb files?

Now I'm back to the -2147417848 (0x80010108) error. That's all I see in the browser. I put aspnet_isapi.dll in the bin and I get this error now.

Okay, already in the bin folder were PopCalendar.dll, and PopCalendar.pdb. PopCalendar.dll is obviously the dll that I produced, and it's in the bin. I added aspnet_isapi.dll as well.

You don't need aspnet_isapi.dll in there. Just the dll you produced.

So aside from the dll's do you have any idea what's going wrong here? Any idea what the -2147417848 (0x80010108) error means?

Can you post the error message not the error number? Error numbers are not much help

Posted By: DevDevil
Date Posted: 08 September 2004 at 1:43pm

That's the entire error. All I see in the browser is -2147417848 (0x80010108). I wish it did say more.

Thanks Mart
I was already reading those. Thanks for all your help. Next time I'm in England I'll buy you a pint or 7.
